AI Can Almost Do A "FIXME"... We're Cooked

The power outlet Jenga tower of doom – the perfect metaphor for modern development! You start with a "tiny project" that somehow requires npm installing half the internet. Next thing you know, you're daisy-chaining power adapters like some mad electrical engineer because your "simple app" now depends on 17 frameworks, 42 libraries, and that one obscure package maintained by a mysterious developer who might actually be a cat. The best part? Remove any single adapter and the whole project crashes harder than my production server during a demo!

The modern beginner's dilemma in one perfect image! Trying to pick your first programming language is like being that panicked creature staring at a floor scattered with tech options. JavaScript? Python? Maybe C#? Or perhaps one of those trendy frameworks? The cruel irony is that veterans know it barely matters which pill you swallow first - you'll end up learning half of them anyway. Yet we all remember that initial paralysis by analysis, frantically Googling "best programming language 2024" at 2AM while questioning our life choices. Pro tip: Just pick one and start building something. Six months later, you'll hate whatever you chose and switch anyway!

The pie chart that never lies! While TailwindCSS promises reduced code bloat and maintainability, the chart reveals the brutal truth - that enormous yellow slice is the learning curve consuming 70% of the benefits. It's like buying a Ferrari only to spend most of your time reading the manual. Those class names hover:bg-blue-700 focus:ring-2 focus:ring-offset-2 md:text-sm lg:px-4 xl:tracking-wider 2xl:border-opacity-75 aren't going to memorize themselves! Developers staring at this chart are nodding so hard they're at risk of neck injury.

VSCode just implemented the most accurate geolocation feature ever—detecting you're in Mexico and auto-applying the sepia filter for that authentic "Breaking Bad Mexico scene" experience! Next update: opening it in Russia turns everything grayscale, and Japan gets neon cyberpunk themes. The code doesn't care about your syntax errors anymore—it's too busy matching the aesthetic of your current latitude and longitude.

The gospel truth of UI design hanging on a wall for all to see! If your users need a manual to figure out your interface, you've already failed. It's like dating someone who needs footnotes to understand your jokes - just painful for everyone involved. The number of "intuitive" interfaces I've seen that require a PhD to navigate could fill a library of disappointment. Remember folks: if your grandma can't figure it out after three glasses of wine, it's not user-friendly, it's user-hostile.

Ah yes, the classic client scope creep. First panel: "Make me a portfolio website?" Simple enough, just slap some HTML and CSS together, maybe a touch of JavaScript. Second panel: "Now make me a simple store. How hard can it be?" Suddenly you need React, MySQL, authentication, payment processing, and whatever that circuit diagram is supposed to be. Probably the client's "simple" idea for a recommendation algorithm that "just works like Amazon's but better." It's like asking someone to build a doghouse and then casually requesting they add an infinity pool and home theater while they're at it. Because you know, how hard can it be?
